With a strange potion, new location and the odd Muggle Studies Professor along for the ride, Harry's in for an interesting summer, but why is Snape here? Dumbledore had better pray he gets all three back in one piece! Humor, Angst, No Mary Sues, No Romance, no real plot.

    I really enjoy this story. I am so glad that you have updated it. I can't wait for the next update!

    Author's Response: Thank you! :)

When Harry finds an injured Snape on his doorstep and must hide him from the Dursleys, he has no idea that this very, very bad day will be the start of something good.

Harry and Snape are thrown together by annoying relatives, a series of strange dreams, and Voldemort's latest hunt for Harry, but their greatest challenge may well be surviving each other. This will be a long summer unless the two can find a way to work together. A slow-burn enemy-to-mentor story.

Alternate 6th summer (and part of the school year): post-OotP; ignores HBP and DH.

    You had me a little worried about Professor Snape! 🙃 I’m so glad that Harry is finally committing to what he needs to do! Thank you for the update and I look forward to next week‘s chapter.

    Author's Response: So sorry to have made you nervous about Snape! I don't think I'd have the heart to boot him from my story...considering he's one of the main characters and all. ;) And yes - bring on the Occlumency studies!!

    I really enjoyed this chapter. I am so glad that Harry apologized and that Snape reciprocated!

    Author's Response: Me too! It took them long enough!

Title: Chapter 26: Chapter 26 - Midnight in the Kitchen 10 Oct 2019
Reviewer: Shell (Signed)
    I really enjoyed the kitchen scene with Harry and Snape. When Snape told Harry to sit down and that he was still his guardian. I was pretty sure he was going to have “the talk” about him being up in the attic with two girls! Too bad Harry cut him off. 😄

    I really enjoy your writing. Thank you for sharing it!

    Author's Response:

    Haha it's tempting to include "a talk" now, you have no idea!! I'm not sure either of our boys would make it through a conversation like that in one piece at this point in their relationship, lol.

Reviewer: Shell (Signed)
    Wow! They both agreed that they didn’t try very hard with learning/teaching occlumency. That’s a big step. I’m looking forward to seeing how the lesson turns out. Thank you for the update.

    Author's Response: Thank you for the note! And sorry for the delay in responding - Real Life getting in my way... Next chapter won't be out until December because I didn't get it done before NaNoWriMo. But I can't wait to find out what you think about the rest of the lesson. :)

Title: Chapter 28: Chapter 28 - Occlumency, Part 2 07 Feb 2020
Reviewer: Shell (Signed)
    I really enjoyed this chapter. I loved Harry’s stream of conscience and the interactions with Snape.

    Author's Response: Thank you!! That was fun to write. :)

    Oh my goodness! What a cliffhanger. Poor Harry. I really enjoy your writing. I am looking forward to the next chapter!

    Author's Response: Yes, I was a bit cruel with that cliffhanger, wasn't I? But some scenes you just can't end in any other way than a cliffie, you know? I do hope I am forgiven. ;) Thank you for the review!
